- Who were the owners of the Ameri House?
During the Zandi period, the main owner of the Ameri House was Ibrahim Khan Kalantar. Long after, when the city of Kashan was besieged by Agha Mohammad Khan Qajar, Al-Saltanah shares, which were of Arab origin, came to the aid of the ruler of Kashan and protected the city against the attack of Agha Mohammad Khan. For this reason, the ruler of Kashan gave him this house to appreciate the shares of Al-Saltanah. After the death of Al-Saltanah shares, the main mansions and courtyards of the house were inherited by his eldest son, Ibrahim Khalil Khan Ameri, and the rest of the house to other family members. After that, this house is known as the house of the Americans.
